follow one of the sets of directions below, take a look at the map, or just print up the MapQuest directions. A link to Mapquest appears at the bottom of these directions.
From Dubuque, and Galena (Follow the Red line):
- Head East on US 20, through Elizabeth. Be mindful of the speed limit in Elizabeth, it is a notorious speed trap.
- On the East side of Elizabeth, US 20 climbs a steep hill. At the top of the hill Derinda road intersects on the right. Watch for (and follow) the sign for the Massbach Ridge Winery.
- Turn Right on Derinda Road.
- Immediately after turning right onto Derinda road, TURN LEFT onto Bethel road. The intersection for Bethel road is about 10 feet from US 20. Bethel road is curvy, watch for wildlife and farm equipment.
- Follow Bethel for about 4 miles. You will come to a stop sign at the intersection with Massbach road.
- Turn Right onto Massbach road.
- Follow Massbach road for about 2 miles.
- The studio is at 8313 S. Massbach Road, next door to St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church. It will be on the Left, you won't miss it.
From Rockford and Freeport (Follow the Yellow line):
- Follow US 20 East into Stockton.
- Turn Left on IL 78. You will pass Christ Lutheran Church and drive through the old downtown area. Continue on IL 78 for perhaps 3 miles. After you pass a golf course on your right, Schuller road will intersect. There is no stop for traffic on IL 78 so you will need to be alert. Watch for (and follow) the sign for the Massbach Ridge Winery.
- Turn Right onto Schuller road. In about a mile and a half you will come to a stop sign. The intersection is with both Schuller and Massbach. Go strait through the intersection. You will now be on Massbach road. Don't ask, it may be the nexus of the universe.
- Remain on Massbach road for perhaps 5 miles. Massbach road is curvy, watch for wildlife and farm equipment.
- The studio is at 8313 S. Massbach Road, next door to St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church. It will be on the Left, you won't miss it.
From the Quad Cities and Savanna (Follow the Green line):
- Follow Illinois Route 84 into Savannah. Continue to follow Route 84 through Savannah. It will change names to "Chicago Ave," and then again turn into "Main Street."
- On the north side of Savannah turn Right onto Clay Street. Clay street is a small residential street, and easy to miss. If you pass the bridge over the Mississippi (it intersects to the left) to Sabula Iowa, you have gone too far, and if you pass the Mississippi Palisades State Park (on the right), you have ALSO gone too far. Clay street is about 3 blocks south of the bridge.
- Clay Street climbs up a steep, windy hill, and turns into Scenic Ridge Road outside of Savannah city limits.
- Follow Scenic Ridge for perhaps 5 miles. Scenic Ridge is curvy, watch for wildlife and farm equipment. It is, ironically, not terribly scenic. At some point, likely when you cross into Jo Davies county "Scenic Ridge Road" will become "Derinda Road." Don't be alarmed.
- Approximately 5 miles from Savanna, Derinda Road will intersect with Albrecht Road. There is no stop for traffic on Derinda Road, so you will need to be alert. Massbach road goes off to the right.
- Turn Right on Massbach Road. In approximately 1/10 of a mile you will come to a "T" intersection with Massbach Road.
- Turn Left onto Massbach Road. There is no logical explanation for this, it is best to not think about it too much.
- Follow Massbach Road for about 2 miles through the village of Massbach.
- The studio is at 8313 S. Massbach Road, next door to St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church. It will be on the Right, you won't miss it.
From Mt. Carroll (Follow the Blue line):
- Take Illinois Route 78 North out of town. About half a mile out of town, Elizabeth road will intersect on the Left. There is no stop for traffic on Route 78, so you will need to be alert.
- Turn left onto Elizabeth Road.
- Follow Elizabeth until it dead-ends into Elizabeth Road. I have found it is best to not ask too many questions.
- Turn Right onto Elizabeth Road. From Elizabeth Road. Seriously, don't ask.
- Follow Elizabeth for about 4 miles. When you cross the county line Elizabeth road will turn into Massbach Road.
- Follow Massbach road through the village of Massbach.
- The studio is at 8313 S. Massbach Road, next door to St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church. It will be on the Right, you won't miss it.
